How do prepare your home for sale? The goal is to spend as little as possible in order to get as much as possible. In order to do this, you must first make a mental shift – your home is no longer your home – it is now a product. So, how do you prepare your product for market? Here are 3 top tips for selling success.

  1. PAINT
    Everyone loves freshly painted house. It feels and smells clean and new. Remember, the goal is to appeal to as many people as possible. With this in mind, it’s very often that personal choices appeal to us. But, don’t appeal universally. Painting the internal walls of your house a neutral color will give you the single largest bang for your buck.
  2. STAGING
    It is proven fact that staged homes sell faster than vacant homes – and for more money. Staging allows you to give your home a “designer feel” – which will ultimately result in better imagery. Staging offers buyers a fresh and compelling way to look at your property, making it more competitive in the marketplace.
  3. DEEP CLEAN
    Make your home sparkle and have it cleaned at least every other week while buyers are coming in and out for open houses and showings. This includes having the windows washed inside and out.
